In [[sub-Saharan Africa]] zawiyas proliferated somewhat later than in North Africa, appearing in conjunction with the development of Sufi brotherhoods and networks across the region in the 18th and 19th centuries. Zawiyas that were established in towns and staging posts along Saharan trading routes played a major role in the dissemination of Sufism and in establishing the influence of certain ''tariqa''s. Among the ''tariqa''s of major importance in [[West Africa]] were the [[Qadiriyya]], a wide-ranging order originally begun by [[Abdul Qadir Gilani]] (d. 1166), and the [[Tijaniyyah|Tijaniyya]], whose founder [[Ahmad al-Tijani]] (d. 1815) is buried in [[Zawiya of Sidi Ahmed al-Tijani|his zawiya in Fez]]. Another example, the [[Mouride|Muridiyya]], was of major importance in the history of [[Senegal]].<ref name=":052" />

In the rest of the Islamic world, similar Sufi institutions usually went by other names such as a ''[[khanqah]]'', ''[[takya]]'' (or ''takiyya'' in Arabic, ''tekke'' in Turkish), or ''[[dargah]]'' (shrine), though these terms sometimes had more specific meanings.<ref name=":052" /><ref name=":242" /><ref name=":243" /><ref name=":162">{{Cite book |last=Petersen |first=Andrew |title=Dictionary of Islamic architecture |publisher=Routledge |year=1996 |isbn=978-1-134-61366-3 |location= |pages=279 |chapter=tekke}}</ref> In the early [[Ottoman Empire]], the cognate term ''zaviye'' usually designated a multi-purpose religious complex that catered to Sufis and served as a place of worship.<ref name=":1">{{Cite book |last=Kuban |first=Doğan |title=Ottoman Architecture |publisher=Antique Collectors' Club |year=2010 |isbn=978-1-85149-604-4 |location= |pages= |translator-last=Mill |translator-first=Adair}}</ref><ref name=":052" /> Many important early Ottoman mosques such as the [[Green Mosque, Bursa|Green Mosque]] in [[Bursa]], built in the early 15th century, are examples of this type.<ref name=":1" />
